The Intoxicated Rat - Cisco Houston/Woody Guthrie[00:00:00]
Well the other night when I come home[00:00:04]
As drunk as I could be[00:00:06]
I got tangled up in the old doormat[00:00:09]
Fell flat as I could be[00:00:11]
Well I had me a little old bottle of rum[00:00:15]
And I didn't have any more[00:00:17]
And the cap flew off when I went down[00:00:19]
And I spilled it in the floor[00:00:20]
Then a rat came out from his hiding place[00:00:23]
And he got that whiskey scent[00:00:25]
And he ran right up and got a little shot[00:00:27]
And back to his hole he went[00:00:29]
Back to his hole he went[00:00:32]
Right back to his hole he went[00:00:33]
He ran right up and got a little shot[00:00:35]
And back to his hole he went[00:00:37]
Then the rat come out of his hole once more[00:00:43]
Sidled up to the rum on the floor[00:00:45]
He was a little bit shy[00:00:47]
But he winked one eye[00:00:48]
And then he got him a little bit more[00:00:49]
And he didn't go back to his hole that time[00:00:51]
But he stayed by the puddle of gin[00:00:53]
And he said "Doggone my pop eyed soul[00:00:55]
I'm gonna get drunk again"[00:00:56]
And he didn't go back to his hole[00:00:59]
He said "Doggone my soul [00:01:00]
I'm only a rat[00:01:02]
But a doggone cat[00:01:04]
Can't run me back to my hole"[00:01:04]
Well he washed his face with his front feet[00:01:08]
And on his hind legs he sat[00:01:10]
With a twisted smile and a half closed eye[00:01:12]
Said "Where's that doggone cat "[00:01:14]
And he didn't go back to his hole[00:01:16]
But he said "Doggone my soul [00:01:18]
I'm only a rat[00:01:20]
But a doggone cat[00:01:21]
Can't run me back to my hole"[00:01:22]
Well his little old eyes begin to shine[00:01:25]
And he lapped up more and more[00:01:27]
And it made me glad that I had stumbled[00:01:29]
And spilled it on the floor[00:01:31]
But soon the puddle of rum was gone[00:01:33]
And I didn't have any more gin[00:01:35]
And the little old rat was having a time[00:01:37]
And the old tom cat come in[00:01:39]
Well the cat made a pass[00:01:41]
And the rat made a dash[00:01:43]
His boldness faded thin [00:01:44]
The cat jumped over[00:01:45]
And the rat got sober [00:01:46]
And back to his hole again[00:01:47]
Ran back to his hole again [00:01:50]
Ran back to his hole again[00:01:52]
Well that cat jumped over[00:01:54]
And the rat got sober[00:01:55]
And back to his hole again[00:01:56]
